    Thanks Bear and Tick...

    Tick, Thursday through Sunday for most.

    Love Turkey and all the trimmings especially the mashed sweet potatoes with marshmallows on top and that cranberry sauce... 5 PM tomorrow is dinner.

    It certainly is Bella, melt the marshmallows first and then put them on top. It is almost like a desert.

    Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

    I am home just cooking a turkey for us three. Shared a pillow with my son and watched the parade. Memories. I did that same thing when I was his age with the same smell in the air. I hope it carries on in his mind like it has mind.

    Hi unky.
    I am feeling much better. Thank you. What's new your way today? I am getting so nervous. I start the new job Monday. Eek. I hate being the new girl.

    All will be fine :)

    Well, as when the holidays started, I got one of the games which just got out, finished the storyline the day before yesterday and finished all the quests yesterday. Now I'm on the multiplayer mode, but it's very difficult to do alone. I can't go to my friend's place everyday, so...

    Apart from that, I'm getting some earnings from AMHD.
    I got about 1.2 euros up to now through Google. :p

    Good job Unky! I'm up to a whopping .54 cents! Lol

    Sunny, you will do fine. Just let them see that amazing personality you have :)

    Well, I don't know what I did, but it seemed like I got 10 clicks since last Thursday...

    By the way, how are you Bella? :)

    I am doing good. I have another sinus infection. So I am resting on the couch with the curtains drawn and the lights out.

    How have you been? Have you gotten any marks back from your exams? I already know you will have done excellent!
  • Nov 26, 2010, 09:40 AM
    Unknown008

    Well, I don't think I'm getting 'excellent' but maybe 'very good' :( I'm aware of some mistakes I made, you know how you tend to lose your mind sometimes under pressure...

    The results will be in February. Apart from that, getting on well here. Summer is coming up, water is getting scarce, drought period here... The phone line was having problems the past two days but it's okay now.

    Get well soon! :)
  • Nov 26, 2010, 09:55 AM

    Thanks Unky. I am sure you have done fine on your exams!

    I hope your summer isn't too dry! Ahh I wish I was there, basking in the beauty and warmth. Brr it's bloody cold here. -15c today, snow, freezing rain, and hail. Brrr.

    Well I am going snuggle under my blankets and have a nap before E comes home from school. Talk soon Unky :)

    I am back. I put a coating of polyurethane on the little table I am doing. Its not the look I wanted. But its still super cute just the same.

    Bella I hope you feel better. The bad weather doesn't help any either I am sure. We are supposed to get the same weather here. But its only cold and sunny. Funny weather man.

    How are you earning money? Jeez unky your rolling in the cash!
  • Nov 26, 2010, 01:08 PM

    Well done on earning money unky and bella :D

    Get well soon bella :)

    Is the mini table finished sunny or is there still a bit of work todo?

    Its supposedly going to snow here over the next few days, this hopefully means work will be canceled on Monday :D

    I didn't get notifications for your post Sunny :(

    It's Ben who helped me. There is an expert board where there is a sticky and I peeked a little :o

    There was something about Google adsense. I signed up and waited. And from then, there are links to my answers in the boards I'm 'expert' in. Each click brings in some money. (that doesn't mean I'm asking you to click them, I fear they cancel my account in case of 'unusual clicking activity' :()

    But some earning will help, specially if the internet connection balance is often exceeded :o

    They will eventually. Don't worry about that. The winter months are coming and people will be staying inside more and more where it is warm. Rest assured they will browse the ads. I don't use it myself so I can't tell you of expectations. But I wouldn't quit your day job over it either from what Ive heard.

    Well, to say a little more about it, there is a road going from the foot of a mountain up to near its peak. It's winding so that the slope is not too steep.

    There was a lot of winds up there, but it was refreshing since the walk made me feel hot :)

    Well I just love working in general. No matter what I have done I have sadly taken pride in. Even right down to serving pizza. But I know just what your saying.

    How are you? How is Marta? I am sure your bursting with xmas decorations now?

    We are doing fine. Busy, we had thanksgiving here as I said before and it went great. All the outside decorations are up, no one on this block will need street lights or porch lights until after Christmas.

    Today we start doing the inside decorations and the tree... takes forever but I love it. I'll post some pictures when I am finally finished.

    Love this season a lot.
